‘Leaving Towie Was The Best Thing I Ever Did!'

From 2015 to 2017, she was mostly known as Dan Edgar’s girlfriend on ITVBe’s The Only Way Is Essex. Fast-forward one year, and life couldn’t be more different for Kate Wright, after she left the show in September following an extended break in April.

Now loved up with former footballer, Rio Ferdinand, 39, and enjoying spending time with his three kids, Kate has waved goodbye to her TOWIE days for good.

And the 26-yearold couldn’t be happier with her decision, recently gushing about her ‘rewarding’ life outside of the show.
